A nice run up the hill to Ms S' house to move a sofa.

We arrived and met a lovely excitable dog called Lulu, who wanted so much attention it was hard to get to the sofa in the first place, but we resisted her charms and got to the sofa.

It took a lot of twisting and adjusting but the sofa finally was freed from from the house after the removal of the legs and cushions, and we were on our way.

Yoga talk

Yoga encourages Three-dimensional Movement.

Much of our lives are spent moving our bodies in only one direction. Whether we’re sitting on a chair, flexing our neck up and down to look at screens or moving between floors by going up and down stairs, we’re drastically limited in our range of motions. Our bodies were designed to move in 3 dimensions, yet modern life forces us to largely move in only one. yoga helps to encourage a variety of movements..

There's something strange in the neighbourhood...

Sadly the Mile Cross area of Norwich has a high amount of fly tipping and litter. To combat this, the Mile Cross Litterbusters formed to try and tackle some of the worst hit areas. They regularly meet on weekends, but were happy to connect with GoodGym for a first ever evening litter pick.

6 GoodGymer's ran or walked 4km to Wensum park, where we met Rebecca who had handed out the equipment, instructions and hi-vis. We read through the health & safety, and set off in pairs armed with grabbers & bin trolleys.

Keeping an eye out for any hazards, we covered a large area of roads around the park and local shops. The most surprising find was a discarded kettle!

An hour flew by, and in total 7 bags were filled - ready to be collected by the council in the morning. We even received a certificate for our efforts! It was very rewarding task, superbly organised by Rebecca & her team.

We arrived in good time for Mr. D's sofa move and were delighted to find the replacement chair had been taken into the flat already, so we were only focussing on taking the old one away. It was an incredibly hot day and the work was massively sweat inducing.

The chair wasn't too heavy and we managed to get it down the stairs fairly easily, parking it next to the building's bins for collection. We then moved the much much heavier replacement chair into position and we were on our way.

Mr and Mrs D were incredibly happy with the results!

A return to the garden of Miss N, to carry on clearing her garden and this time, to focus on retrieving the art ornaments that have been buried by the Periwinkle. We cleared loads, with Jax making extra effort in lugging the cuttings to the top of the garden.

Load and loads of ornaments came out of the garden, some which have not been seen for years!
